A: Do you have to have a program, such as Microsoft Excel, installed on your computer in order to watch our course video? No. You do not. You can watch our videos without having the corresponding program installed. However, you will learn best if you can watch our videos through, and then replay them, going through the examples step by step with the software - on your own.

Just like it's difficult to learn how to drive a car without having a car to practice in, it's tough to learn how to use Excel without a copy of Excel to play with.

For information on PURCHASING copies of software that you might need, such as Microsoft Word or Excel, please visit our SOFTWARE page.
